Question 4 of 5
Joel has some internal bleeding. At which of the following sites is the most common for the child with hemophilia to bleed?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: In children with hemophilia, the most common site for bleeding is at the ends of the long bones, such as the joints (especially the knees, elbows, and ankles). This is due to the joints being more prone to injury and stress during physical activities. As a result, spontaneous bleeding or bleeding following minor trauma can occur at these sites. Internal bleeding in the cerebrum or intestines is less common in children with hemophilia compared to bleeding in the joints.
Question 5 of 5
The nurse is talking to a parent of an infant with heart failure about feeding the infant. Which statement about feeding the child is correct?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: In infants with heart failure, they may have increased metabolic demands due to their condition. Thus, it may be necessary to increase the caloric density of the infant's formula to ensure adequate nutrition and energy intake. This can help support the infant's growth and provide the necessary energy for their increased metabolic needs. Increasing the amount of formula or feeding too frequently (every 2 hours) may not be necessary and could lead to other issues like overfeeding. Placing a nasal oxygen cannula on the infant during and after each feeding (Option D) is not typically related to feeding practices for an infant with heart failure.
